Dove Tailed Drawer

All of our drawers feature dovetailed construction. This is the strongest possible construction for drawers. All 4corners of the drawers are dovetailed. All interior drawer parts, including thebottoms, are solid wood. One of the most recognizable "cues" indicating quality in wood furniture is dovetail drawer construction. English and French dovetails are a desirable type of construction for many reasons, including the stability of the joints as well as the extra storage capacity of English dovetail drawers.
For example, here's a story I heard at one of our sales training sessions at a dealer's store. One of the store's salespeople had an older dresser that they gave to their daughter that had English dovetailed drawers in it. They bought a new bedroom group for themselves with a different type
of construction. After emptying out their clothing from the old dresser, they did not have enough room in the
new dresser drawers to store all of their The quality of dovetail construction starts with the joint itself. This
type of joint would be described as a "locking joint." The taper of the male dovetail (on the drawer side) is
turned opposite the direction in which the drawer is pulled open. With a tightly machined joint and the proper
glue, this joint will last for generations. That is part of what creates heirloom quality furniture. clothing.

Veneering

In addition to the obvious savings of our natural resources, many projects built using wood veneer would not be possible to construct using solid lumber. Due to expansion and contraction common to all wood products and caused by changes in humidity, many of the patterns and designs possible with veneers would self destruct, if attempted with solid lumber.
